Key commands worth knowing:
S: solo current track
M: mute current track
Space bar: Play/Stop
A: Show automation
Up/Down arrows: move up/down tracks
R: Record
There are a load of other ones- google "Garageband Key Commands" for the full list but this should get you started.

I've used GarageBand a little bit so for me the thing I'm really keen to learn is a workflow for recording a tune.
e.g. I recently recorded but didn't pay attention to the metronome/bpm so it was quite tricky to lay tracks up on top of each other with accuracy. I probably need to put a computer drum track down to keep my timing.
Have you tried the Presonus Artist software ?
As a starter I would say make sure you have some sort of save system, or song naming system...before you know it you will have tons of songs with just the date or some pre determined file name...;-)
Good luck ...have fun.

It's easy to use, but is powerful as well.

You asked for tips, so here’s one that has helped me a lot.
As someone who records his own songs, track by track, by myself, I often find that I am getting tangled up in leads - guitar lead, headphones, trying to reach the record button and messing it all up. My playing space is usually a few yards away from my Mac, so I bought myself a Bluetooth mini-keyboard that I use to press the record button from a distance. Works really well and saves me having two-minute intros to all my recordings.
Just a thought . . .

Bit of trading feedback here.

It’s the latest on his YouTube channel I think
Having said that, I don't like the new version compared to older ones. Apple always bugger up their good stuff eventually.
